​​Dear Equity,Equity, Equity, Equity. What a word you are – you sound a little like your cousin “equality”, but you are somehow fresher, snappier. So many have written or made videos about how youtwoaredifferent, but why are people making such a fuss about you, in particular?​Because, Equity, though you may seem footloose and fancy-free, you have hidden depths. You demand an acknowledgement of the legacy of historical wrongs. You demand attention towards continuing bias and oppression (the African American Policy Forum does an excellent job of summing all this up in cartoon form). You envision – and you demand – an end to harm and a path to collective liberation.
